Shadow of Mordor casts you as a ranger named Talion, whose family was slain by Sauron's armies. Having been killed himself, he's resurrected with "Wraith abilities", and is ready to take on the hordes of Mordor.


In development for PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC at Monolith, the studio behind Guardians of Middle-Earth, Shadow of Mordor is set between the events of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.

Boy: *calls 911* Hello? I need your help!
911: Alright, What is it?
Boy: Two girls are fighting over me!
911: So what's your emergency?

Why can't we just get a game that follows the entire adventure of the fellowship on the new tech? I just had a movie with expanded universe bullcrap...

Looks pretty cool, although I was waiting for the announcement of a Radagast bunny-sled racing game...

Sucks that you can't play a wizard.

Give me a new RTS on PC.

And one giant third person action/rpg that follows the story from start to finish that doesn't suck.

"Neither Men nor Elves know where the fëar of Men go after leaving Arda"

Sort of playing devil's advocate here, simply because I want to give this game a chance, but maybe it isn't a Man or an Elf that brings him back?

On an unrelated note, is that the ruins of Barad-dûr in the far left of the third image? It doesn't fit with the setting obviously, but that place looks like a Mordor that is slowly being reclaimed by nature.

Should at least look like a wraith and not like Aragorn.

Damn, my limited knowledge of the Tolkien universe is already being pushed beyond its means, so I shall trust your judgement.

I missed my chance to play BFME2, but I occasionally dive into the original even now.

From what I have heard however, EA no longer has the rights to the franchise, and the developer of both games is having enough trouble with Command and Conquer.

I'll be sure to play this. It looks interesting and sounds interesting.
